Phillip, I've got a servo motor doing my elevator trim. I used a (Radio Shack) rotary potentiometer for the control (less than $5). I made a larger wheel for the pot out of plywood, painted it black, turned it sideways and put it in the instrument dash (lower left side in front of pilot). I just recently put a white tick mark on the wheel at the center position for trim. I do have pictures on my web site www.robert7721.com under instrument panel.
